BATTLE OF X-RAY REVELATIONS
Seattle Denies Women
'False-Front' Leaders
Seattle, July 29 (U.R) Seattle women, accused of wearing
more "raisies" than women in six other cities, were defended
today by public officials and store merchants.
The charge came from John
T. Saltz of the Greater Cleve
land X-Ray foundation, who
said that chest x-rays taken in
Cleveland, Columbus, Ga.,
Washington, D. C, St. Paul,
Minneapolis, Spokane and Seat
tle showed that Seattle was the
"false front" leader.
Cleveland women, Saltz an
nounced proudly, depended least
on artificial bust lines.
Mrs. Esther Seering, publicity
director for the anti-tuberculosis
x-ray drive in Seattle, was
v first to leap to the challenge.
I "We noticed safety pins, met
' al brassiere clips and other
metal attachments," she said
firmly, but "falsies they're not
metal, so how could an x-ray
show them up? They couldn't!"
Despite Mrs. Seering's spirited
defense, x-ray technicians inter
viewed by United Press said
it was possible to detect a
sponge rubber-type "falsie" on
an x-ray film.
"They cast sort of a shadow,"
one technician said.
In his charge, Saltz had said
that the high incidence of "fal
sies" in Seattle "was so obvious
that the x-ray techicians had
commented on it."
Buyers in Seattle department
stores partially supported the
Cleveland charge when they re
vealed that foam rubber bras,
pads and "A" and "B" bust
cups were "the fastest moving
items we have."
However, the buyers were
quick to credit "style and pos
ture consciousness" as the rea
son for the volume.
"Many of our customers don't
need them," the buyer for a
large chain store said. "But
they buy them anyway for that
added oomph, I guess."
The owner of a Seattle bras
siere shop told exactly the op
posite story.
"We deal in problems for the
most part," she said. "Three
fourths of . our customers are
too large."
The head x-ray technician in
one of Seattle's largest hos
pitals was impatient with all
"falsie" theorizing.
"We don't have to depend on
what the x-ray tells us on that
core," he said. "We know.
We just tell them to take off
their clothes."
Doctor Diagnoses
Own Mental Illness
Portland, Ore.,,July 29 (U.R)
A 31-year-old Portland physi
cian, who diagnosed his own
mental illness today was com
mitted to a mental hospital.
The unnamed physician was
committed after his own testi
mony and that of psychiatrists
were given at a court hearing
here yesterday. "
"I'm sick," he told Circuit
Court Judge Ashby C. M. Dick
son. "There have been times
when I'm afraid of hurting my
self." The physician was asked what
he would advise if he were treat
ing a patient exactlv like him
self.
"I would suggest that he be
closely guarded at all Ames," he
aid.
Monkey Freed
In Tot s Death
Grand Junction, Colo.,July 29
(U.R) Aa pet monkey, suspected
of causing a baby girl to drown
when he went berserk, was ex
onerated today.
Sheriff E. E. Redmon said the
monkey couldn't have been
connected with the death of
18-month old Joanne Fowler be
cause there were no marks on
her body.
The monkey ran away from its
owner, bit one woman, and tore
the dress of another before it was
shot to death.
A rumor sprang up that the
monkey had either pushed or led
the child into the irrigation ditch
where she was found dead near
her home.
But officials said the monkey
never had been seen closer than
a quarter of a mile from her
home . They said the animal
"would hardly have been able
to get near the girl unnoticed."
Joanne, only child of railroad
man Wesley H. Fowler, dis
appeared yesterday. Her bodv
was found about a mile down
stream later in the day.
